[Pharo-project] readOnlyFileNamed:do: vs. ...

by StÃ©phane Ducasse

Nicolas I saw that in squeak you changed and use readOnlyFileNamed:do: I like it but I would like to understand what is the key advantage fromFileNamed: aName FileStream readOnlyFileNamed: aName do: [:stream | stream setConverterForCode. self fileInFrom: stream] fromFileNamed: aName | stream | stream := FileStream readOnlyFileNamed: aName. stream setConverterForCode. [self fileInFrom: stream] ensure: [stream close].

Re: [Pharo-project] [squeak-dev] Curl plugin problems

Sure, that could be done if I had several years of free time and if I wouldn't be bored reading and implementing dozens of RFC standards. Properly supporting protocols (this is definitely not what HTTPSocket and FTPClient do) like FTP, FTPS, HTTP, HTTPS, SCP, SFTP, TFTP, TELNET, DICT, LDAP, LDAPS and FILE means a lot of work.

yesssss!! I try set that property, but in the row :| . Now see than that was a stupid question, excuse me. Now show perfect.Still I have some problems. The text of cells is positioned in the up left corner. Is possible modify the text align of a StringMorph? Another problem is the tabulation action. How I could do for the cells work with "focus"? For example controls like button or texboxes work of that way. I need that for move the selected cell through the tab key. Many thanks for the help, and excuse me for my english.

Re: [Pharo-project] How do I actually start seaside using Workspace for Installing external projects?

by Dale Henrichs

I think that this would be the perfect spot for a ProfStef tutorial ... handful of steps to configure/launch Seaside 2.8 ... The tutorial could be part of ConfigurationOfSeaside28 and when loaded would launch the tutorial ... it would not be part of the Core group, but would be available in the Tutorial group... Just some thoughts ...
